About Stoa

GPAgent's own fund-neutral profile, written from public information. Updated Oct 4, 2026.

Summary

Stoa builds pricing and trading infrastructure for AI hardware, serving companies that buy and sell GPUs. It runs an RFQ marketplace where buyers submit hardware requests and vetted dealers respond with firm, binding quotes, replacing the fragmented process of private broker calls, stale price lists, and opaque off-market negotiations. The platform handles the full transaction path, from price discovery to execution, in a single structured venue.

Business model

A fee on each completed GPU transaction executed through the marketplace.

Go-to-market

Buyers and sellers of GPUs, including operators, brokers, and enterprises needing GPU supply, access the platform directly through sign-up or by contacting the team, with vetted dealers on the supply side.
